Motorola has  line of pressure transducers (MPX ...) with ranges of
0>1.5PSI on up. 

A good doc is their 'Pressure Sensor Device Data' manual (DL200/D). Gives
all sorts of specs and app notes (barometers, pressure readouts;  even
using the respected LM3914 and a led dot/bar chip  as pressure readout)
